Environmental radiation measuring equipment

Nuclear power plants, research laboratories and medical facilities use a wide variety of radiological instruments and devices for radiation monitoring and control. Fuji Electric supplies a variety of radiological instruments and devices for diverse uses. This paper introduces the following two devices recently developed by Fuji Electric as environmental radiation monitors. (1) An environmental dosimeter for low-level radiation featuring a nearly 100-fold increase in sensitivity compared with the conventional detectable level (2) A transportable monitoring post equipped with a wider-range NaI (Tl) scintillation probe (author)
